Edguy - Tears Of A Mandrake lyrics

rate me

[Music & Lyrics: Sammet]

Gaze at the leaving clairvoyant

Predicting invasions and pain

A child cansee through the stranger...

The Watcher's eye, the noble liar

It's time for the merchant and his help for sale...

Blades to cut wicked flesh

On a merchantman he counts his money

Then he sails away

The sea he'll cruise is blood and fire

Oh father I can't see a lane

They make you a pawn in the game

For we all are deaf, dumb and blind

After the storm when the magic has gone

Drown in the tears of a mandrake

Pawn in the game, invisible chains

Try to move, you'll feel as they graze

After the storm when the magic has gone

Drown in the tears of a mandrake

Fading away, the final decay

Try to move, break out from your chains

When you're off to the hall of the serpent

See the cynic who's counting his gold

While gun runners, priests and clairvoyants

Are dancing around the rising demon

You are taught to eat up all the crap they shit

Parading your nuts on a silver plate

Kill your brother by the blade they sell

For you don't unite

They reap your bondage sowing evil

There's no use to tell what I've seen

They know how to make you believe

Just what they want you to know

[repeat chorus/ solo: Jens/both/Jens/both]

Tears of a mandrake - yeah...

[solo: Jens/Both]

[repeat chorus]

Drown in the tears of the mandrake

Pawn in the game - Drown in the tears of a mandrake
